Peaches Raspberries Crème Fraîche Recipes

RASPBERRY-PEACH PIE

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Mix raspberries, peaches, 1 cup sugar, and flour in a large bowl.
• Press one pie crust into a pie dish; pour fruit mixture into pie crust. Sprinkle remaining 1/3 cup sugar over fruit.
• Cut designs in the second pie crust using a cookie cutter and arrange pie crust over fruit. Pinch the edges of the bottom and top crusts together to seal.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) and continue baking until crust is golden brown and fruit filling is bubbly, about 35 minutes more.

GRILLED PEACHES WITH CRèME FRAîCHE

Steps:

• Cut peaches in half and use a spoon to remove the pits. Rub the peach halves together to release their juices, then place cut side down over direct heat, 6 inches from the coals, or over medium-high heat on a gas grill or indoor grill pan. Grill until peaches are lightly charred, soft, and warmed all the way through, 3-4½ minutes.
• To serve, place the peaches on individual serving plates or one large platter. Drizzle with wine, then add freshly ground black pepper. Spoon dollops of crème fraîche over the peaches, then finish with freshly squeezed lime juice. Serve immediately.

PEACH AND RASPBERRY CRISP

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter the inside of a 10 by 15 by 2 1/2-inch oval baking dish.
• Immerse the peaches in boiling water for 30 seconds, then place them in cold water. Peel the peaches and slice them into thick wedges and place them into a large bowl. Add the orange zest, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup brown sugar, and 2 tablespoons of flour. Toss well. Gently mix in the raspberries. Allow the mixture to sit for 5 minutes. If there is a lot of liquid, add 1 more tablespoon of flour. Pour the peaches into the baking dish and gently smooth the top.
• Combine 1 1/2 cups flour, 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup brown sugar, salt, oatmeal, and the cold, diced butter in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Mix on low speed until the butter is pea-sized and the mixture is crumbly. Sprinkle evenly on top of the peaches and raspberries. Bake for 1 hour, until the top is browned and crisp and the juices are bubbly. Serve immediately, or store in the refrigerator and reheat in a preheated 350 degree F oven for 20 to 30 minutes, until warm.

RASPBERRY CRèME FRAîCHE PUFF

Steps:

• Put oven rack in upper third of oven and preheat oven to 400°F.
• Unfold pastry sheet and cut a 3-inch square from pastry with a sharp knife (reserve remaining pastry for another use).
• Bake pastry square on an ungreased baking sheet until golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer pastry to a rack and cool completely, then cut pastry horizontally into 2 layers. Stir together crème fraîche and granulated sugar until sugar is dissolved.
• Just before serving, put bottom half of pastry on a plate and top with crème fraîche and raspberries, letting some berries spill onto plate. Cover with top half of pastry and dust with confectioners sugar.

CRUSHED RASPBERRY CREAMS

Steps:

• In a small bowl stir a sprinkling of the sugar in with the raspberries, crushing them very slightly as you stir, but still leaving them more or less whole. In a separate bowl fold the crème fraîche and yogurt together with the remaining sugar and the meringue pieces.
• Divide the raspberries among four small glasses, top with the creamy meringue mixture. The raspberry pots can be eaten straight away or will keep in the fridge for up to 4 hours.

PEACHES, RASPBERRIES & CRèME FRAîCHE

Steps:

• Cut the peaches in half, cutting around the pit, and then twist each half in opposite directions to expose the pit. Remove the pits (do this over a bowl so you collect the juices), then gently tear each half in half again and drop into the bowl.
• Add the raspberries and sugar and give everything a good toss to combine. Leave to macerate in the sugar and juices for 5 minutes.
• Lay the fruit out on a serving platter and top with generous dollops of crème fraîche. Enjoy with a cheeky glass of dessert wine, such as Sauternes, or even pour one over the top of the fruits.
